About Cascade Career Prep High School

Cascade Career Prep High School is a public high school in Akron, Ohio, that focuses on preparing students for careers. It is part of Akron Public Schools. The school is for students in grades 9–12 and is meant to prepare them for both college and the workforce. There aren't many students, with an estimated student-teacher ratio of about 16:1. Students take core academic classes and also do hands-on training, internships, and classes that are related to their field of study. These classes prepare them for entry-level jobs or more school. The school mostly focuses on career paths and alternative learning models, so standardized proficiency data in math and reading is limited or not widely reported. The state and district public schools give money for this. District testing programs let students take college entrance exams like the SAT and ACT. Cascade Career Prep High School has a lot of potential when it comes to helping students get ready for college and the workforce, as well as helping them develop useful skills.
